- wolco 7y agoI'm selling the most expensive sandwich for 11B if anyone is interested.

- toomuchtodo 7y agoIndeed, which is why you should spend the money judiciously, instead of on something wildly expensive vulnerable to a relatively inexpensive supersonic cruise missile.
- s1artibartfast 7y agoBeing wildly expensive and vulnerable does not necessarily mean it can't provide $13B of value
- toomuchtodo 7y agoSure, but evidence is required said value is being provided. Otherwise, you’re arguing a rock is providing safety against tigers because there are no tigers around.
